Chapter 664 Evacuation
"Shit! Could it be..."

Wang Tao picked up the telescope and saw the fire in the distance, and immediately had a bad feeling.

Going further ahead, they would reach the location of the Red Maple Base, but the fire was in their direction!
As soon as he saw the fire, Wang Tao thought of the destructive lava monster!

Wang Tao didn't know much about this monster except for some basic data. Although it seemed that the monster was stuck at the entrance of the cave, and the cave seemed a little unusual, with the monster's strength, it would come out sooner or later. It was possible that the monster came out just after Wang Tao left!
"Xiao Jin, faster!"

Wang Tao urged.

"Chirp~"

The golden eagle responded and immediately sped up.

The others also became alert and ready to fight at any time.

As the flames grew bigger, the golden eagle got closer and closer to the forest where the Red Maple Base was located.

Finally, the golden eagle stopped.

Fire, fire everywhere!
Half the forest is on fire!

Deep in the mountains, you can see magma flowing like a river!

The rolling heat wave hit them in the face, making everyone look unhappy.

But Wang Tao was relieved.

"Although the fire in the forest is big, it has not spread to the Red Maple Base. Xiao Jin, let's go take a look!"

chirp——

Xiao Jin endured the high temperature, turned a corner and rushed to the edge of the sea of ​​fire. Only then did everyone see the Red Maple Base not far away.

The Red Maple Base was brightly lit at this time, but there was no fire, but rather that the lantern trees were lighting up at full capacity.

The survivors in the base were in a panic, but under the command of the army, they all entered the bodies of the controlled mutant plants one by one and were able to escape in an orderly manner.

"Fortunately, I'm not late!"

Wang Tao let the golden eagle let out a long cry, and then landed.

Wang Tao and Han Youlin had said before that if you hear the cry of a bird of prey in the middle of the night, don't rush to attack it, but first find out whether it is a golden eagle.

It is pitch black now. Although the Golden Eagle is not afraid of being ambushed by the people from the Red Maple Base, it would be useless if it delays their evacuation.

The loud cry of the golden eagle instantly spread throughout the entire Red Maple Base. The ordinary survivors were a little panicked, and the soldiers quickly picked up their weapons and looked for the source of the sound.

Soon, they saw a huge golden eagle descending from the sky. The soldiers immediately breathed a sigh of relief and quickly put away their weapons.

A group of people hurriedly ran out of the city hall to greet Wang Tao.

"Mr. Wang!"

Seeing Wang Tao coming with a large group of people, the mayor of the Red Maple Base, Xiang Bo, was very excited. Wang Tao really kept his promise!

Wang Tao took a quick look and found that except for Xiang Bo, Tu Lizhen from the Liehuo Gang and others, the military commander Han Youlin was not there.

"what happened?"

Wang Tao asked immediately.

"After dark today, there was another earthquake. This time it was bigger than any other earthquake before! Just when we thought the entire base was going to be in trouble, the earthquake stopped. But before we could be happy, we saw fire in the distance. The forest was on fire! Lava was flowing out from deep in the mountains!"

"Although the magma did not flow directly towards our base due to the terrain, it feels like it will come sooner or later! Moreover, the forest has been set on fire, and the fire will definitely spread to our base. This place is no longer suitable for survival, so we can only evacuate in advance..."

Xiang Bo quickly explained the situation to Wang Tao.

"You didn't see the monster?"

Wang Tao was a little strange.

"No! So far, I haven't seen any monsters, nor heard any screams..."

Xiang Bo knew what monster Wang Tao was talking about and immediately shook his head.

"It seems that the situation is much better than I thought..."

Wang Tao just thought that the destructive monster had already appeared, but the people at Hongfeng's base were lucky and the monster didn't come over.

But now it seems that the situation may be better than he imagined - the monster is still trapped in the cave and has not come out, it just brought out the magma.

Although magma is also terrible, especially in a forest like this, it cannot be extinguished, but at least he doesn't have to face that terrifying destructive creature. This is definitely good news for Wang Tao.

Wang Tao immediately said to Xiang Bo:

"We're here to assist you in evacuating!"

"Thank you Mr. Wang!"

Xiang Bo said with a grateful look on his face.

Although Wang Tao didn't bring many people, their auras were incredibly strong! With the help of these people, their evacuation would definitely be greatly accelerated.

"By the way, where is Han Youlin?"

Wang Tao suddenly asked.

"Well, I don't know either. Commander Han said that he would go to the front to command in person. Our strength is not strong enough, and we need people to guard the rear, so we didn't go with him..." Xiang Bo explained.

Wang Tao nodded and said nothing more. He immediately called on everyone to help the survivors of the Red Maple Base evacuate.

With the addition of Wang Tao and his team, the evacuation speed of the people at the Red Maple Base was significantly accelerated. For example, if they encountered some buildings or stones blocking the road, the awakened ones could destroy them instantly. When facing some heavy mountains and dense jungles, the awakened ones forcibly opened up a path out.

Anyway, everyone in the Red Maple Base had to evacuate, whether inside or outside the base, so they didn't care if it was destroyed.

The military and Wang Tao and his team cooperated very well. After the awakened people cleared the road, some mutated plants such as leaf cars immediately appeared, carrying survivors and leaving.

Wang Tao had been on guard against other mutant creatures, but probably because of the magma and forest fire, he didn't see any mutant creatures appear. In this case, Wang Tao also participated in the evacuation operation.

But after thinking about it, Wang Tao did not go up himself, but took out a treasure chest, and then took out a crystal energy cannon from the treasure chest!
Because of the existence of the destruction-level monster, Wang Tao did not dare to consume too much energy. He had to ensure that he was always in full condition, so that if he really encountered danger, he could escape quickly. Although Wang Tao came to save people, he was not a stubborn person. If the seventh-level destruction-level monster really came, he would immediately run away with everyone without saying a word, and would have to abandon the survivors of the Red Maple Base. After all, that monster was not something they could deal with, and staying would be a waste of death...

But it was safe for the time being. If he just stood there and watched without doing anything, he would get a little anxious. So Wang Tao decided to find a way to help - at this time, the crystal energy cannon might come in handy.

While thinking in his mind, Wang Tao had already placed the crystal energy cannon. After making sure there was no problem, he placed the crystal core into the cannon and then pressed the start button facing the forest in front.

boom--

There was a flash of white light, and then a small mushroom cloud appeared in front of everyone, and the entire area seemed to have become daytime.

When the light gradually faded and the mushroom cloud gradually disappeared, everyone found that the dense forest in front of them, including the mountain next to it, had disappeared, leaving only bare, charred land.

Wang Tao was very satisfied with this.

The power of this crystal cannon is not as high as his damage, but the explosion range is large, comparable to his use of [Explosive Flame]. And to deal with these stones, trees, etc., you don't need too much damage, just destroy them. So in terms of clearing roadblocks, using the crystal cannon is more convenient than doing it himself.

It's nothing more than the consumption of crystal energy is relatively large, but compared with these hundreds of thousands of people, this consumption is definitely worth it.

Wang Tao took out other crystal energy cannons and asked others to join in. This time he came out, he brought all the crystal energy cannons in the base.

boom--

boom--

boom--

Under the continuous bombardment of the crystal energy cannon, a not-so-flat but very wide road appeared directly in front of everyone at the Red Maple Base.

Originally, if they wanted to evacuate the forest, they would need to take a detour, but now they don’t need to do that and can just take a shortcut.

Seeing the leaf trucks carrying the survivors quickly leaving the Red Maple Base, Wang Tao and his companions all smiled.

But suddenly, the smile on Wang Tao's face disappeared and he became serious.

Ding Yuqin and the others were shocked when they saw it.

"Wang Tao, is that guy coming over here?"

I've always heard Wang Tao talk about how powerful that seventh-order destructive magma monster is. Are they going to face it head-on now? ! But Wang Tao said they have no chance of winning. They might die before they even see the monster...

Everyone was very nervous and their palms began to sweat.

"No, don't worry! If it really comes, I will definitely take you away first."

Seeing that they all misunderstood, Wang Tao immediately shook his head and then explained:

"I just suddenly thought of something... I remember Han Youlin told me before that these mutant plants under their control cannot leave the Red Maple Base. If they leave the base, there will be no 'signal'. But now... can't these mutant plants work normally after leaving the Red Maple Base? Have they found a way to control them?"

Wang Tao hadn't noticed it before, but now he suddenly discovered that mutant creatures like the leaf cars were fine when they left the Red Maple Base. Even the lantern trees were carried away together, and they were all fine, without any problems.

This is obviously different from what Han Youlin said before. But after all, some time has passed, and it is reasonable for them to come up with something.

After hearing what Wang Tao said, the others breathed a sigh of relief. As long as it wasn't the seventh-order destructive creature that came over, it would be fine. As for why these mutant creatures could walk out of the base, that was obviously not what they were curious about now.

Except Wang Tao and Qu Shilin.

Wang Tao was just curious, while Qu Shilin wanted to know whether the military at the Red Maple Base had developed new technology. They hoped that the institute would be willing to exchange this technology with other technologies or materials.

But now is not the time to talk about this. The most important thing is to quickly help the survivors of the Red Maple Base evacuate.

……

Time passed quickly and a night passed.

The fire in the forest was still burning, getting bigger and bigger, and it was almost spreading to the Red Maple Base. Although the magma had not flowed over yet, the high temperature in the air was making even Wang Tao feel uncomfortable.

The personnel at the Red Maple Base have not yet been evacuated. Although they are moving very quickly and have the help of people like Wang Tao, there are more than 800,000 people after all, and it is impossible for them to just leave.

Fortunately, after a night of hard work by many awakened people, more than ten roads leading out of the forest were opened up!

At the current rate, everyone will be evacuated in another hour.

Wang Tao and his party finally breathed a sigh of relief as they watched the last group of survivors begin to evacuate in an orderly manner under the organization of the military at the Red Maple Base.

This evacuation operation seemed to be full of dangers, but it was much smoother than Wang Tao had imagined. For one thing, the destructive monster never appeared. Another thing was that the other mutant creatures did not appear either.

Although there are not many zombies in this forest, there are many mutant monsters, including sixth-level lords and disasters... If these monsters come to the Red Maple Base, it will bring great obstacles to their evacuation. Wang Tao has been guarding against them, but until now, when the evacuation is almost complete, no mutant monster has appeared.

Wang Tao suddenly thought of the scene he had seen deep in the cave before - when he was killed instantly by the destructive level monster, the other mutated monsters in the cave also died instantly and turned into ashes!
Therefore, Wang Tao had reason to speculate that the sudden eruption of magma in the cave may have killed a lot of mutant monsters. Those that were not killed also fled for their lives and had no intention of coming to the Red Maple Base.

"Destruction level... destroy everything!"

How can we defeat such a powerful monster? And after it dies, it will turn into a bigger drought... So even if we have the ability to kill it, it seems that we can't just kill it casually!
Wang Tao rubbed his temples and then looked at the evacuating people again.

"We should be able to evacuate now... You guys stay here, I'll go check out the cave!"

Wang Tao suddenly said to everyone.

"Ah? Isn't that too dangerous?!"

Everyone looked worried.

"It's okay. I won't get close. I just want to see if that guy has come out..."

Wang Tao was still a little worried. The evacuation of the Red Maple Base was not yet complete, and they still had to walk a long way to reach the new base. If there was a seventh-order destructive creature chasing them, they would have to change their plans...

"Then you must be careful..."

"Ah."

Wang Tao rode on the golden eagle, bid farewell to everyone temporarily, and flew towards the depths of the forest.

However, the golden eagle was flying very high. If Wang Tao hadn't been holding a telescope, he wouldn't have been able to see the situation in the forest below. That monster was too strong. It's better to be careful.

After a moment, Wang Tao saw the hill where the cave was.

At this time, except for the small hill, the rest of the area had turned into surging magma, like purgatory, and the cave could no longer be seen.

The hill is sinking at a slow speed, and it will probably be completely melted into the magma in a short time.

Wang Tao let the golden eagle fly a circle, but he did not find any "blood bar" appear in his field of vision, nor did he feel the breath that made him afraid.

"It looks like it hasn't come out yet... but it will probably be soon... Go back, Xiao Jin."

Wang Tao didn't dare to go any deeper and quickly asked the golden eagle to go back.

When they returned to the Red Maple Base, the last group of survivors had just left, and only Ding Yuqin and a few others were still waiting for Wang Tao.

"You're finally back! They have all left the forest safely, but it will take at least three more days to get to the new base..."

"Well, let's escort them all the way. I just checked, and the monster hasn't come out yet. We are still safe for the time being."

"it is good!"
